On a side note, not sure if Savers has taken the same rule into effect, but as of May 28th Value Village will no longer sell anything without a tag at the register. I've already witnessed 2 people get caught. You can totally tell they ripped the tags off, too. It's too funny. Although, I don't know what I am going to go when I find a great item that I can't live without that doesn't have a tag. Speak with a manager? Offer a lot of money? Any suggestions?

i would totally buy that and not feel bad at all about putting it in the dishwasher! ;)

I've run into that same policy elsewhere and it sucks if you really want something that isn't tagged. Right away the person at the counter assumes you were the one that ripped it off, and flatly refuses to sell it to you. Or charges double what a similar item would be.

I LOVE these! There is not another one out there that looks exactly like it! IF it was a good price I would so buy it! I so would not think twice about putting it in the washer. buy it. love it. use it.

i saw a similiar "abuse" situation on one of the online retail sites the other day where someone has what probably used to be a red 402 from the primary set for sale. it is listed as a white bowl with a red line just under the rim....really, people? a red line under the rim? it looks like that is all that was left of the pretty red paint. so sad

I have a red fridgie that was abused but not this bad. I keep it by the sink for a scrubbie to sit in. Perfect and I don't worry about the finish on it. As for no tags, If I find something, I give it to a worker and ask them to take it to get it priced. It has always worked for me so far. They bring it back to me and then I check out with no issues. Give it a try and let me know. hugs, Linda

I second Linda's notion to ask about the pricing from a floor worker or a manager. I find that as long as you are up front about the lack of price tag, the employees are cool about it. I also find a busted up fridgie is good for keeping stuff handy.
